Their stadium and practice facility are younger than most, but both are filled with memorabilia and banners dating back to the team's inception in 1925. Likewise, Coughlin—the NFL's oldest coach at age 67—began his career back in 1970, before anyone was too concerned with hydration or soft-tissue injuries.
